In the Area

Recreational opportunities abound just around the corner. Between the Groß-Berliner Damm, Hermann-Dorner-Allee and Wrightallee, is Park Adlershof, built on a former airfield. Here you can skate, cycle, go for a run or just take a walk. There’s another park in nearby Köpenick, which also offers cafes, restaurants, shops and even a museum in a historic castle.

South of Adlershof is the Lake District and Zeuthener See, Crossinsee and the Dahme, where you can get into nature for exercise and relaxation.

Berlin’s largest lake Müggelsee is reachable by bike in about a half an hour. It boasts many secluded beaches and beer gardens with their own breweries. The Tram 63 takes you directly from the Studentendorf (Stop: Karl-Ziegler-Straße) to Strandbad Müggelsee.

For passionate skaters, there is a 230km skate course easily accessible by regional train.

With conveniently located supermarkets, bakeries, weekly markets, pharmacies and doctor offices right off campus, you can run all your daily errands in no time. If you are looking for more options, the largest shopping center in Berlin, the Gropius Arcade in Rudow, is close to Adlershof. There you can visit restaurants, take in a movie or find your next favorite outfit.
